The Investment Gap

We’ve all heard of the wage gap but the gender investment gap could cost
women just as much over the course of their careers.

Did you know that in 2016, women-led companies made up just 4.9% of venture
capital deals and received only 2.19% of venture capital dollars? Or that when
compared to American men, fewer American women have started saving for
retirement, they’ve saved less and they place 68% of their money in cash?

What is being done locally to address these disparities? What can we do to
narrow our personal investment gap? Why does it matter?

Join us for an evening of lively discussion where we will dive into these questions
